Love and falling in love

Hello. My name is Angelina. I’m a teacher with the online English school, EnglishDom.com. Today we’re going to talk about love and falling in love.

Love is really a wonderful thing and falling in love is a great experience for anyone to have! Many people fall in love multiple times throughout their life and each time they, they swear it is the last time they ever will. Falling in love really is something that is scary and it’s wonderful at the same time. When most people fall in love they do crazy things to get the other person’s attention. Normally, because of those crazy things, they often embarrass themselves in front of the other person — their boyfriend or girlfriend because they are so nervous when they are around them. Ideally, most people meet that one person and they in love and they are together for the rest of their lives. People prefer it that way because they feel as though loving someone and being loved really completes them and makes them whole. But sometimes that situation doesn’t always work — sometimes you fall in love with someone and it doesn’t always work out. But that is not always a bad thing, sometimes some of the best experiences a person might have are in relationships that did not end up working out. So it’s work it to try, even if you are scared or you’re nervous or you’re unsure, in the end it’s always worth it to try to have a relationship with someone.

Some idioms and expressions about love and falling in love are "falling head over heels for someone". When you "fall head over heels in love" with someone you are completely in love with the other person. You don’t see anyone else, you don’t think about anything else, you are completely wrapped up in that one person. Another one is "love at first sight", a lot of people say the fell in love with their spouse — their husband or their wife — that they fell in love with them at first sight. That means that before they even spoke to them or got anywhere near them, they say them maybe across the room or something at a party and they fell in love. One more is "to break someone’s heart" and when you "break someone’s heart", it means that you do something that hurts them or you end the relationship. You do something negative to that other person and you "break their heart", you upset them, you hurt them and it normally means that that particular relationship is over. But, like I said, it’s always worth it to try.

I hope you enjoyed learning a little bit about love and falling in love today. Please join us in our discussion group or on our forum on our Facebook page to talk more about this. Feel English and feel free! Bye for now!

A couple drove down a country road for several miles, not saying a word. An earlier discussion had led to an argument and neither of them wanted to concede their position. As they passed a barnyard of mules, goats and pigs, the husband asked sarcastically,"Relatives of yours?""Yep," the wife replied, "in-laws."
